We adhere to the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework as set forth by the European Commission and the US Department of Commerce regarding the collection, use and retention of personal data from European Union member countries.

Types of personal data we collect and use

We will only process personal data in ways that are compatible with the purpose we collected it for, or for the purposes you later authorize by participating in an event or activity supported by TRS LLC. We maintain reasonable procedures to help ensure that personal data we collect and use is reliable for its intended use, accurate, complete, and current.

Data transfers to third parties

Agents, consultants and service providers: We may share your personal data with our contractors and service providers who process personal data on behalf of TRS LLC to perform certain business-related functions. These companies include our marketing agencies, database service providers, backup and disaster recovery service providers, email service providers, payment processors, background check providers, and others. When we engage another company to perform such functions, we may provide them with information, including personal data, in connection with their performance of such functions.

If we have received your personal data in the United States and subsequently transfer that information to a third-party agent or service provider for processing, we require that such third party agent or service provider processes your personal data to the standard required by our Privacy Shield commitments.

TRS LLC Companies: We may also share your personal data with our parent companies, subsidiaries and/or affiliates for purposes consistent with this Notice.

Business Partners: We also provide information to our channel partners, such as distributors and resellers, to fulfill product and information requests, and to provide customers and prospective customers with information about TRS LLC and its products and services.

Business Transfers: As we develop our business, we might sell or buy businesses or assets. In the event of a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution or similar event, personal data may be part of the transferred assets.

Disclosures for National Security or Law Enforcement: Under certain circumstances, we may be required to disclose your personal data in response to valid requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

Organizers: When you register as a volunteer, purchase tickets to, register for or donate to an event or related fundraising page on or through our services, we provide the personal data entered on the applicable event or related fundraising page to the Organizers of such event and related website or fundraising page.

Facebook and Other Third-Party Connections: You can connect your TRS LLC account to your accounts on third party services like Facebook or Google Analytics, in which case we may collect, use, disclose, transfer and store/retain information relating to your account with such third party services in accordance with this Notice.

Legal Requirements: We may disclose your personal data if required to do so by law in order to (for example) respond to a subpoena or request from law enforcement, a court or a government agency, or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to (a) comply with a legal obligation, (b) protect or defend our rights, interests or property or that of third parties, (c) prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Services, (d) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of Users of the Services or the public, or (e) protect against legal liability.

We try to minimize disclosures of personal data as reasonably practical because we are mindful of our responsibility and potential liability in cases of onward transfers to third parties.

Security

We maintain reasonable and appropriate security measures to protect personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction in accordance with the Privacy Shield.

Access rights

You may have the right to access personal data that we hold about you and request that we correct, amend, delete it if it is inaccurate or processed in violation of Privacy Shield. These access rights may not apply in some cases, including where providing access is unreasonably burdensome or expensive under the circumstances or where it would violate the rights of someone other than the individual requesting access. If you would like to request access to, or a correction, amendment, or deletion of your personal data, you can submit a written request to the contact information provided below. We may request specific information from you to confirm your identity. In some circumstances we may charge a reasonable fee for access to your information.
